Notes:

John Livergood, "was a native of North Carolina where he was born probably as early as 1754. His ancestors belonged to the Moravians, a religious body that settled in Carolina at a very early date. In 1800 he, together with his wife and family of six children, left their native state and travelled north to Virginia where they met with the 'Fordney Family' who were making preparations for moving to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Joining themselves with this company Mr. Livergood and family continued their journey to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, where they found one of the most beautiful counties ever presented to their view and in which they greatly desired to settle but they, as many others, found that they had not the required capital to procure one of those beautiful Lancastrian homes, hence the desire to push onward their journey to some place where homes could be procured for a less sum of money. So in spring of 1802 a company left Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and meeting others from Cumberland County of the same state, moved to Canada. Among this company were the Livergoods, Sararas, Shupes, Fordneys and other families. After their (Mrs J. Livergood was Sallie Sararas, sister to Nicolaus Sararas. This information was received from the late David Sararas) arrival in this country they all settled in Waterloo County, along the banks of the Grand River ... in the vicinity of Freeport. Mr. Livergood settled on the east bank of the Grand River, north of the 'Toll Bridge'. Here he resided with his family until his death which took place about the year 1819. His family consisted of six children".

Two Creeks farmer killed

Team Take Fright at Automobile and Wendell Sararas is Thrown from Wagon with Fatal Results

We regret to have to report the death of Mr. Wendel Sararas, one of the oldest and most prosperous farmers of the two Creeks District who died as a result of an accident The previous day, on Sunday October 23rd. The circumstances attending the accident are such as to need a little explanation, lest of wrong impression should get abroad.

Last Saturday Mr.. T. B. Mitchell was driving his Ford car along the road when he noticed deceased, driving a team of horses approaching. Mr. Mitchell stoped the car about 60 yards in front of the horses which did not appear to mind the car until they got right up to it, When they suddenly swerved to one side and through deceased to the ground. Everything possible was done but with no avail for he passed away on Sunday.

Mr. Sararas ha attained a ripe old age, being 74 years, 6 months, and 12 days old. The last 20 years of which he spent in the district where he died.

He was always an industrious hard-working man and success had reported his efforts. Highly esteemed but those who were intimate with him, his death will be regretted by the whole community.

He leaves a wife and grown up family.

Wendel married Leah Kunzenhauser 9 Aug 1859, , Oxford Co., Ontario, Canada.

Notes:

"I have a bit on Hannah. She married Frederick Yandt in Dec 15,1870 at Normanby, he was 56 and she was 24 years old. They had Jacob, Elizabeth, Martha, William (my gg great grandfather ) and Johannes. Sometime between 1877 when she became pregnant with Elizabeth and the 1881 census Frederick died ( I have the cemetery transcription and if it is the same Frederick he died 1880).

After his death in July 26, 1883 at Normanby, she married a John McLeod, son of Duncan McLeod and Ann McArthur. In the "Farm Lanes of Bentinck" history book. at the back it ha s a list of the cemetery transcriptions for the area and it lists a Mrs.Hannah McLeod 1845-1939 buried with John Yandt and his wife Elizabeth. I do not know if she had any children with John McLeod or not.

I also have Frederick Simon Yandt's military file and it lists a Mrs. Hannah McLeod as his mother and living in Indian Head Saskatchewan. When he enlisted in Feb of 1916 she was living in Neustadt, Ont and by October of 1916 she had moved to Oakre River Manitoba and then to Indian Head Sask. I don't have a Frederick listed as one of Hannah's kids but I may have missed one. I have another Hannah Yandt that married a Dan McLeod as well so I am not sure which one is the Hannah that is his mother."

New Dundee's Grand Old Lady Celebrates 98 Birthday, at Home.

(By Chronicle Correspondent)

NEW DUNDEE-New Dundee's "Grand Old Lady", Mrs. Hannah Sheard celebrated her 98th birthday at her home on Bridge St. on Tuesday. Despite the fact that she has been bedfast for over 6 years, the merry twinkle in her eyes reminds one of the fun-loving girl she must have been almost a century ago. Mrs. Sheard still takes a keen interest in the activities about her and is always pleased when her neighbors and friends call in to chat for a few minutes. As a special treat for her birthday this year, Mrs. Sheard is favored in having one of her granddaughters, Miss Mary Johannes of Saskatoon, Sask. visiting her. Miss Johannes arrived on Monday in time to help celebrate the occasion and in the evening a family gathering was arranged by relatives from Kitchener as is the custom each year on her anniversary.

Mrs. Sheard who is the oldest resident of the village and surrounding community, was born Oct. 21, 1849 on the old Sararas homestead, one mile east of the village which had been settled by her father, Andrew Sararas. The farm is now owned by Alfred Sararus, Mrs. Sheard is probably the only living person who can recall the village in its very early days. She vividly remembers the opening of the New Dundee "Lane", the road which adjoins the dam and is the connecting link between Main and Bridge Streets.

Her girlhood years were lived during the time people did most of their travelling on foot and walking to Kitchener or Haysville was considered to be all in a day's work. Her father purchased his first buggy when she was 17 years of age. Prior to that time, Mrs. Sheard made several trips with her parents in an open wagon to visit relatives in Hay Township, a distance of 60 miles which was travelled in one day.

Much of Mrs. Sheard's life was devoted to nursing and as a girl of 12 years she looked after her first patient. She was also noted for being an expert spinner When 20 years of age she married Arthur Sheard and they settled on the old Sheard farm in this community now owned by Herbert Becker.

Her husband passed away more than 60 years ago. Mrs. Sheard had four children, two of whom are still living, Mrs. Conrad Johannes of Saskatoon, Sask., and Titus Sheard of this village. A daughter, Mrs. John Lint died in 1927 and a son Alvin passed away a few years ago. She also has 13 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.

Mrs. Sheard looks forward with keen pleasure to the visits with her friends and neighbors which are the highlights of each day to her since she is no longer able to be up and around. Possessing an active energetic disposition, Mrs. Sheard still loves to recall her early life when as a child she walked to the neighboring village of Haysville and to the town of Berlin, now Kitchener, in the days when most of the travelling was done on foot. Much of Mrs. Sheard's life was devoted to practical nursing and she vividly remembers waiting on her first patient as a girl of 12 years.

She was born Oct. 21, 1849, on the old Sararas homestead and one mile east of the village which was settled by her father, Andrew Sararas. At the age of 20, she was married to Arthur Sheard and they took up residence on the old Sheard farm northeast of the village which iis now owned by Herbert Becker. A widow for more than 50 years Mrs. Sheard has lived much of the time in her present home on Bridge St. She had four children, only two of whom are still living namely Mrs. Conrad Johannes of Saskatoon, Sask. and Titus Sheard who resides with his mother in the vilage. Mrs. Sheard also has 13 grandchildren and five great grandchildren. It is interesting to note that the well-known concert pianist, Thelma Johannes of Saskatoon, who often broadcasts over a CBC network is a granddaughter of Mrs. Sheard. A large number of friends and relatives called to extend congratulations to Mrs. Sheard on Sunday. During the day she was the recipient of numerous lovely cards.

SAD. The sudden taking away of Mrs. C. H. Chisholm, a former well-known resident of Hespeler, was a shock to all the friends of the family. The sad event took place at Pittsfield, Missouri, U. S., last Thursday of typhoid fever, leaving a very young child. The remains were brought here for interment. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Geo. Haigh. Much sympathy is felt for Mr. Chisholm in his affliction. Her parents with their friends from Dundalk, Ont., were all present at the funeral, which was largely attended by Hespeler people.
